And when Canelata thought he had the championship in the bag with a perfect 50 in the first round of the finale, Williams came to force the slam-off with his own 50 drawn on an off-the-board thunderous two-handed reverse throw-down.

The Sta. Lucia ace then executed another two-hander on a 360-degree turn for 45 points.

On his turn, Canaleta ran from midcourt, soaring high to perform between-the-legs dunk that drew mild response from the crowd.

That prompted Canaleta to opt for a re-dunk.

He summoned three ball boys from the sideline and promptly got the crowd up on their feet.

Doing a perfect execution, Canaleta got another perfect score for the championship cheered on by the highly appreciative crowd in the venue. (SB)
